Joy in the Center of God’s Will
If you know you’re doing what God’s called you to do, you understand the joy of being in the center of God’s will. I wonder how many, though, have this peace and assurance vs. how many feel a void as they strive to know why. My mom has made the comment that “The only safe place to be is in the center of God’s will.” I’ll add that it’s also the only joyful place to be.
It seems like in life, there are many people who have plans for your life. Whether it’s parents, grandparents, friends or relatives, everyone has opinions. Sometimes it can be hard to sift through the voices to hear the voice of God. As an adult, I still struggle with that but I’m learning to pay attention to signs that can sometimes be an indication. Am I at peace or stressed? Am I content or do I feel as though something’s missing?
Your calling may change but it’s important you know what your calling is. How can you fulfill that calling if you don’t know what you’re supposed to do? If you’re just getting through each day, I encourage you to get hold of God to know if you’re truly doing what He desires you to do. Life requires that we do what we can to pay our bills but there’s a place God desires you to do that as well. Take time to listen to His voice and follow Him. When you do that, you will find that peace that passes understanding and you will walk in that joy that knows no end.
Thanks for blogging such important, timely and encouraging posts, Sony. You’re a blessing!
